Is cable both power and data?
I have a Y-shaped USB cable, 18" long, with type A at one end and the
two previously most common mini's at the other end, the one that used to be used for cell phones and the other slightly bigger one. All 3 ends have the USB logo in the plastic. Doesn't that mean it's both power and data? If it were power only, it should not have the logo, right? Yet when I plug one end into the computer and another end into a Harmony remote control, I get no beeps from the computer. So that means the cable is defective, right? I've had it for years, but I guess I've never used it except for charging things.
